New Water Pitcher

We just got home from a fabulous 10 day trip to Bellingham, WA to visit my Grandpa Pederson. Grandpa has a friend, Donna, who volunteers at a thrift shop that helps the needy. One day we went to visit Donna at the store and I found this cool vintage water pitcher. It really reminds me of my Fiestaware, so I brought it home. (Thank you Southwest for your generous baggage allowance!)

I have really been trying to drink more water lately and I found a post for Sassy Water on Pinterest, so I decided to give it a try. Delicious! I have only had one glass this morning, but it was really full of flavor and very refreshing. I think it will be great in the summertime.

I modified the instructions a little bit. They are so simple:

1 lemon

1/2 cucumber

10 mint leaves

1 pitcher of water

Chill overnight

I think next time I will only use 3/4 of a lemon so that the cucumber and mint stand out a little bit more. Yum.
